How to route 2 parameters to a controller?

Question

This seems really basic but i can't get the hang of it. I'm trying to send more then one parameter to a method in the controller, like this : ``` http://localhost/ci/index.php/subjects/3/state ``` This is the routings i've tried : ``` $route['subjects/(:num)'] = 'subjects/view/$1'; $route['subjects/(:num)/{:any}'] = 'subjects/view/$1/$2'; ``` the method accepted 2 paremeters : ``` public function view($slug, $id = null){ } ``` but i seem to get a 404. How can i get this to work? i need the view method to always accept 1 parameter and optional other parameters. NOTE : I am including the url helper.

Accepted Answer

you have problem with your route brackets just change it from {} to () brackets will work

from

```
$route['subjects/(:num)/{:any}'] = 'subjects/view/$1/$2';
```

to

```
$route['subjects/(:num)/(:any)'] = 'subjects/view/$1/$2';
```
